    Roy Orbison rode a CZ 250 in the 1966 Hawkestone Park moto cross rally, fell off and broke his ankle.
    There is a documentary currently showing on BBC I-Player channel 4. Roy Orbison 'One of the lonely ones'
    Well worth a watch if you like the Big 'O'

    The Old Forge pub, Britain’s most remote bar, is located in Inverie, which is so isolated in the Scottish Highlands that no roads connect the village to the rest of the country. Thirsty travelers need to hike 17 miles over very rough terrain, or take a 7-mile ferry ride from Mallaig.

    Always wanted to pull up alongside a tw4t with it's front fog lights on and say
    1. "Do you know your fog lights are on"
    2. "Do you know it's not foggy"
    3. "Do you know you can get 3 points and a fine for that"

    First time I saw these pipe spanners was when we moved to France - available everywhere over here, including Brico Depot (same as B&Q Depot). They are surprisingly good and useful.

    Even tho' 1930's, still the best video to explain how a differential works.

    This is a scale model of a killer coaster. Literally. If they do build it, don't have a go. The coaster is designed to kill you by starving your brain of oxygen.:skull:
    upload_2017-5-30_18-17-29.jpeg

    Here’s how the world’s oddest suicide method would work: First the rider would face a long, slow climb up to more than 500 meters, giving him or her a few minutes to think back on life and contemplate the decision. At the top, there would be time to say a prayer or blow a kiss to relatives (or bail) before pressing the “fall” button and plummeting into the long steep plunge followed by the first 360-degree loop. That’s where most riders would die. According to Urbonas, traveling at 100 meters per second, the person would experience a G-force-induced loss of consciousness due to cerebral hypoxia (lack of oxygen reaching the brain), which often causes a sense of euphoria. Just in case that first one didn’t do it, six more consecutive loops would finish the job


    If this was a gixxer forum, the next 12 replieis would all be "I'd do it !!!" :laughing::laughing::laughing:

    As long as there were a few transplant teams with ventilators etc at the end they would still be able to harvest the organs :D

    I guess, if BMW were to do this, they'd take a big wheel, say twice a man's size with 5 spokes.
    The suicidicals get strapped to the spokes, heads to the center of the wheel.
    Then you just need to spin it fast enough.
    Saves lots of space. So there you go: you can kill much more peoples (pun) with a higher efficiency at lower cost.
    (Am I German, or what?)
